Description
About us:
Aeva is building the next generation of sensing and perception for autonomous vehicles and beyond. With its unique ability to measure instantaneous velocity for each pixel, long-range performance at high resolutions, while being free from LiDAR or sunlight interference, Aeva’s 4D LiDAR is built from the ground up at silicon photonics scale for mass-market applications.

Role Overview:
We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior Manufacturing Engineer specializing in photonics and optical manufacturing to join our dynamic team. As a Senior Manufacturing Engineer, you will play a crucial role to coordinate with hardware engineering and contract manufacturing to ensure the assembly operation execution of NPI and mass production meets our product quality, delivery, cost and reliability targets for our advanced photonics and optical products. Your expertise in wire bond,plasma clean,  hermetic seal, soldering,  failure analysis, OCAP, statistical process controls, manufacturing execution system (MES), DFM, and SOP, and your work with the engineering team on process optimization from NPI to manufacturing ramp will be vital in driving our manufacturing processes towards excellence.

What you'll be doing:

  • Perform process set-up and optimization, data analysis and interpretation to identify trends, patterns, and potential issues. Perform DFM analysis. Implement improvement in the manufacturing process for yield and product quality.
  • Collaborate with hardware engineer and CM to install machine, perform machine/process validation, establish work procedures, and machine calibration and maintenance.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, photonic test engineer, manufacturing, IT, and quality assurance, to troubleshoot issues and improve product performance.
  • Collaborate with manufacturing to ensure product delivery on time.
  • Collaborate with Aeva engineering team and CM to maintain manufacturing execution system (MES) software interfaces to streamline the testing and data collection process.
  • Participate in the development and implementation of assembly process strategies to improve efficiency and reduce cycle time.
  • Provide technical guidance and mentorship to CM engineers and technicians.
  • Stay up to date with industry trends and advancements in photonics, optics, and test engineering to incorporate best practices into the manufacturing process.
  • Collaborate with external vendors and suppliers to ensure the availability and functionality of required equipment and tooling.
  • Manage quality on the line by routinely monitoring KPIs, and present reports to operations and management teams
  • Responsible for test failure debugging and corrective actions when there are deviations.
  • Drive process time reduction efforts and implement improved procedures and process control & disposition flow.
  • Prepare assembly roadmap and capacity plans for product ramp and next-gen NPI.

What you have:

  •  Bachelor’s or master’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Optical, or related field) or equivalent practical experience.
  • Proficient in data analysis and interpretation, using statistical techniques and software tools such as JMP.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication and presentation skills and capable of making clear conclusions and recommendations and direct subsequent follow-up work and actions
  • Strong understanding of optical and photonics manufacturing processes and equipment, debug laser & photonics assembly.
  • Hands-on experience with wafer, bar, subassemblies and packaged photonics modules
  • Experience with wire bond, plasma clean, hermetic seal,  and soldering
  • Experience with assembly process to qualify laser and photonics components for high volume
  • Minimum of 7 years of experience in manufacturing engineering, preferably in the field of photonics and optics.
  • Proficiency in developing and documenting manufacturing plans and procedures for optical and photonics components and systems.
  • Experience with manufacturing execution system (MES) software and its integration into the process.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to troubleshoot technical issues effectively.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to collaborate with cross-functional teams and external stakeholders.

What's in it for you:

  • Be part of an early start-up that's backed by industry-leading venture capitalists
  • Very competitive compensation!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
